Off To Immigration To Pick Up Our Passports,

we now both have multiple reentry visas, then on to the railway to wile away a few hours, cover the hill with some neat glue, by the way if you are not into model trains scroll down!

then add the undergrowth,

I soon had enough of that so I moved on to mixing some paint to colour the rock fall, I just keep adding the paint and then washing it off slightly with water sprayed from a plant mister,

the colour is nearly as it should be, but as with anything like this it is all down to how you remember the effect from real life,

well it is sort of the same colour,

next add a few more 'bushes',

a few more bits added to the left hand hill, then enough already,

time for the Friday night market,

one of the stalls selling dogs, cats, hamsters, squirrels, birds and lizards,

every time Diana cuts my hair she runs her hand over my head and calls it a crystal ball, perhaps I should get a hair extension!

you may have seen from the comments we now have a Thai cooking expert with us, so as I mentioned in the comment I have not seen these before, they look very sticky but I do not have a clue what they are or what they are called, so over to you,

I of course was sitting at the bar when Diana called back with the first purchases of the day, food for later this evening,

next she arrived with a matching coloured bag,

inside of which was a nice white denim jacket, a bargain at only 150 baht, Diana hates getting brown in the sun, so she always wears a long sleeve jacket when we are out and about on the bike, one thing I have noticed and even Diana commented on it, was the number of couples that call into the bar that buy just one drink between the two of them, not just one or two couples but several in the couple of hours we sit there, taking this to an extreme was a couple with 4 kids, I am guessing, as I do not speak child, they were from the ages of about 6 to 14 years old, dad bought 1 tin of coke with a straw for 20 baht which they all shared, I really think that this is the kind of tourist Pattaya is now seeing more and more of, not spending one baht more than is needed, shame for the vendors who see people who want a drink each that can not then find a seat whilst the tin of coke is shared,

home for a Scotch egg salad, feet up and watch some television, first Midsomer Murders, Bantling Boy, a four-member syndicate owns a racehorse that two of them are desperate to sell and two of them are determined to keep, when one of them is murdered, Barnaby is on the case, what is worse it dose not stop at just the one murder, then Kavanagh QC, True Commitment, the story concerns a man accused of killing another in a riot, and he forever protests his innocence and that his girlfriend committed the crime, this moves along at a reasonable pace, and is nicely balanced with a couple of subplots such as Jeremy forming a sort of relationship with a woman he acquitted, even Diana was telling Jeremy not to do it! then off to bed.
